Lady Gaga and Rihanna each gave eccentric, visually captivating performances at last night’s American Music Awards. Gaga donned nude undergarments, fishnets, and an Alien-esque light-up skeleton. During her performance she gyrated, smashed glass, set a piano on fire, and broke bottles, all while delivering stellar vocals on “Bad Romance” and “Speechless.” Rihanna made one helluva comeback in a white-banded bodysuit with a laser-emitting bolero, and a “Rated R” chest tattoo. Whose performance was more stylistically shocking? [Photos: Getty Images]

Why do you all have to hate on rihanna, she can sing and if you had any intelligence and weren’t so ignorant you’ll know that an a humans life this is the time in which they are getting thier voice and fully becoming whole, and rihanna killed her performance but i will give lady gaga credit she sure does know ho to act dumb as HECK on stage but yah’ll talk about rihanna being manufactored look at gaga,and than RIRI her label wants money and dance music is making money, but rihanna chose to go an intirely different direction and IT IS SO OBVIOUS SHE IS A TRUE ARTUAST DO TO THE FACT OF THE INSTRUMENTATION SHE DISPLAYED AND RECORDING HER MUSIC…… and that she is a CULTURAL PHENOMONON, (LOOK HOW SHE GOT YAH HATIN ON HER,I HAVE 1 QUESTION WHICH ONE OF YOU HATAS COULD GO IN FRONT OF EVERYBODY WHO IS SOMEBODY IN MUSIC ATER GOING THEOUGH SUCH A HORRIFIC TRAGEDY HUH, AND GOD PLEASE HELP THOSE WHO THIN ITS WAS OKY 4 CHRS TO HIT HER, DUMB ~%^##+!##~))^@!(~&` S HOW ABOUT IF THAT WAS YAH NO GOOD NAST MOTHERS
lady gaga is a better performer and fiercer fashion…rihanna sucks
Both ladies custumes was tacky but both ladies are talented in their different singing styles. Stop hating.
i could definitely rock that outfit
man gaga what a **(`^`+*((&%$)+` ing ugly #+&~%%__+*!%!%# guy……..riri i would **(`^`+*((&%$)+` any day
I just have to say that regardless of the negativety you post about Rhianna ….the girl is paid!
Both singers have their own particular style of singing and as for Lady Gaga I think that outfit as well as soooo many of her outfit are f@cking tacky and incredibly corny. As for Rhianna outfit goes I think it’s hot and she has the body to rock it so I don’t see what the problem is, so haters keep hating becasue while your sittin home being miserable and hating on her she’s still getting money and looks better then Lady Gaga.
rihanna own is much better .. lady gaga dont eben have the body for her outfit and rihanna has it 4 sure so stop hating on riri
lady gaga SUCKS!!!! I hate her!!
LADY GAGA SUCKS. RIHANNA IS THE BEST
ITS ALL ABOUT LADY GAGA WHO THE )~#&~#(*~(@)@&@+ IS THE OTHER _~+%)`)+_(++~##&* HAHA A LAME #&@#&+&##@)%&!* THAT GOT HER #&@#&+&##@)%&!* KICKED BY CHRIS BROWN HAHAHAHA LAME
Wow. I’ve lost faith in humanity. How dare you make light of a person getting abused. And please, Lady Gaga has NO sense of fashion and no amount of trying to call it ‘artistic’ is going to change the fact that it’s tacky and horrible. Ri looks no better in that get up but at the very least, she’s far better looking, not to mention she’s got more sex appeal in her movements then Lady Gaga could EVER hope to muster on a good day.
And stop kidding yourself. Ri is a better singer by a country mile. Lady Gaga is nothing more than a fad.
I HATE LADY GAGA SHE LOOKS LIKE A HORSE!! RHI RHI ALL THE WAY I LUV U RHI RHI
STOP HATING ON HER STUPID PEOPLE . LADY GAGA AINT GOT NOTHIN ON RIHANNA.
SAY SUMTHIN ELSE STUPID ABOUT RIHANNA , IMMA FIND U AND KILL U!!! JUST DO IT , I WANT CHU 2 .
ANYWAY RIHANNA KEEP DOIN WAT CHU DOIN I LUV UR STYLE DONT CHANGE FA NOBODY . LET UR HATERS BE UR MOTIVATORS. KEEP ON ROCKIN OUT GIRL
look. Lady Gaga was the first to come out with her own style. From the first time she ever appeared on a video or where ever. Rhianna is a beautiful hot woman that probalby doesnt need anything to hide her outer beauty. not saying lady gaga does but thats just her style.
Lady Gagga is a great performer like Pink is. She is not only a great singer but an awesome energetic entertainer.
for the lady she is becoming crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the way she is dresssing is un beleveable. she might be having probs.
Why is society comparing these to women? They are both talented women with different styles of fashion and music. Society first wanted to compare Lady gaga to Madonna and Rhi Rhi to Beyonce. I don’t think you can compare Lady GaGa to no one and the same w/ Rihanna. They are both talented artist paving the road in fashion and music. Rock On Ladies!!!
GO GO GO LADYGAGA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
POSTS FOR LADYGAGA GUYS!!!!!!!!!woooooooooooooooooot
they’re all freaky though
RIHANNA SUCKS……….how can they compare rihanna to ladygaga XPPPPPPPPPPPPP
im emo and ladygaga is mostly emo POST POST FOR EMO

Lady Gaga definitely didn’t contest with Rihanna. Rihanna is just way better any month, week, day, hour and even minute. Rihanna rules!! lady gaga well i’ll leave those negative comments locked up. YOU PEOPLE SHOULD DO THE SAME!!!
Lady Gaga blew up in such short time!!!! Rihanna kinda took a hot min ….

I LOVE LADY GAGA WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lady GAGA Sucks A S S!!!! She is a FREAK!!!! At least Rihanna has talent. Rihanna is pretty, GAGA Looks like $#^#)#)+_(%+##*)
I used to be the biggest Rihanna fan — Ever since the thing with Chris Brown happened Rihanna’s Career Has Diappeared.. in “Run This Town” with Jay-Z and Kanye i was like okayy– maybe she will show Chris up and she will be all good.. But then i heard Russian Roulette or whatever that song is called ,,, im listening to it like WTF?? her music will NEVER be what it used to be.. she suxx now,, Hardcore
This might be a very dumb question, but what happened to people just getting on stage and, you know, singing? These are two rather talented young women and yet they feel they have to have all this other crap to distract the audiance from something. Just makes you wonder.
Lady Gaga is way better than Rihanna. Ever since Rihanna got her (_~&)#_(&^()(!& beat by Chris Brown everyone is thinking “omg poor her” well DID YOU EVER THINK SHE HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH IT AND HE FINALLY GOT FED UP WITH IT! Anyways, Lady Gaga may have some crazy outfits, but that’s her and if you don’t like it, then shut up. Rihanna is okay, but the way she’s going now…yea, I liked her earlier work
wttttttfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff does lady gaga have on i like her music but DAMN she looks o so trashy ewwwww gross it looks like she dug in the trash can for her scraps of whatever she calls tht stuff she is wearing,and then then threw powder on for whatever reason ,and in one of her pics she looks like she constipated,sheeeesh lady gagas pics need to be on hot ghetto mess.com.
RI RI IS WAY BETTER LOOKING BETTER DRESSED AND WHO REALLY WANT TO LOOK AT LADY GAGA IN THAT CRACKED OUT LOOKING OUTFIT SHE HAD ON BUT THEN AGAIN RI RI NEED TO STOP ACTING LIKE CHRIS BROWN TRIED TO KILL HER AINT NO TELLING WAT SHE DIDI TO P HIM OFF PLUS HIS CAREER SHOULD NOT FALL FOR HER TO STEP ON HIS BACK TO THE ROAD OF FAME SHE WRONG FOR THAT HE IS TO BUT PEOPLE AND RI RI MOVE ON DAMN U GOT SLAPPED AROUND U O.K GET OVER IT CHRIS KEEP YO HEAD UP BOBBI BROWN PUT WHITNEY ON CRACK WHICH CASE IS WORSE STOP THE TEARS RI RI AND LADY GAGA JUST STOP
anyway chris was wrong for what he did no woman deserves to be hit on by a man and i agree he should not have lost his entire career over a one time mistake im pretty sure he was provoked and he has paid for it so let him move on ri ri did not lose anything she still has all her commercials chris has none of that anymore because he was dropped like a hot potato by everyone and he deserves a second chance….
Lady Gaga is an artist. Rihanna is just a (bad) singer. And I am not even a fan of both.
lady is the best when it comes to crazy clothes riri is just copying her
they both are trying to make a statement and obviously it worked! and this isnt a matter of them its of who rocked it better. so why dont we just say that we think about each one and which one we like better!!! plus this is both for performing so its supposed to be outragous and i love them both so… xoox
I LOVE LADY GA GA
these photos clealy are more about the fashion statements than their preformace talent…
i’m thinking Rihanna won this battle, she looks great. Lady Gaga just looks like she got a little crazy with some ace bandages, not very attractive or interesting…
it’s all a shock to any normal woman, I mean why let themselves down by flaunting the worst pics of them obviousley under the influence of something that makes them careless and very embarrassing. Poor girls , they only just get away with it ’cause they are famous and fans love to know how they can look idiotic and get blamed for obvious crazy moments. All I can say is STOP GIRLS HAVE SOME PRIDE IN YOURSELVES!!!!!!!
She looks a hot a mess like for real on my shoes. Come holla at meh and i will fix yooh up and make yooh holla lol
Man `*@#(@^~&`~(!$_@ lady GaGA Rihanna has it all but i hate how she have my man Chris Brown but I speak the truth Lady GaGa looks a hot %^%##@+_(+%@$() mess always
